My point is that there are 32 head coaches, all of which in the same high pressure job. But none of the other coaches look like they are as stressed out and defeated as the coaches under Tepper. These guys look like they are in the last week of BUDS at a certain point. 

Exactly. It's absolutely a super high stress job. I don't doubt that one bit. But our guys definitely seem to wear it way worse than the other guys. That tells you something. The only other guy right now that's comparable is Mike McDaniels down in Miami. That dude's wearing it this year.

I could just imagine the conversation with his agent...

"Listen Dave (Tepper), you've been firing coaches left and right. There's a lot of hesitation out there in the coaching ranks that they're not gonna be given a fair shot here either in leeway or in the type of control that these roles generally entail within the organization. For my guy to seriously consider this job you're going to have to at least show long-term commitment in the contract. If you do what you've been doing and yank the rug after a year or two we need to be compensated for the damage done to my client's career track."

This Tep rep is a serious consideration. We had to take a guy who we knew wasn’t ready. One year as OC. 
You can him you may not get bottom of the barrel you may have to settle for what’s on the floor near the barrel

I've said it numerous times but I honestly think we're to the point that we can't get anyone who has other comparable options or has reasonable expectations of being a top candidate within the next year or two and I honestly think the last GM and HC searches we conducted we conducted knowing that because it didn't seem like we even seriously pursued hotter candidates. I wouldn't be surprised if we touched base with agents and were basically told thanks but no thanks.

We're to the point that our only hope is horse poo luck. That Tepper hits on a scratch off lottery ticket that these third rate candidates that are willing to work for him are and that we fall backasswards into a QB. Hoping for organizational competency at this point just isn't logical. We just have to get really damn lucky.

    • I know, we’ve talked about it already, but that was mostly before the start of the season, before Bryce came out and Bryce’d it up.  I get it.  The NFL as a collective doesn’t like guys like Deion and Shedeur.  They don’t like self-assured, confident young…  errr… men.  And okay, we get it.  They sent a message by dropping Shedeur to the 5th.  But throughout preseason and training camp, Dillon Gabriel did not look like a backup NFL QB, let alone a starter, and yet, Cleveland kept him above Shedeur on the depth chart.  Shedeur outperformed every QB on their roster by almost every measure and still sits 3rd in their depth chart.  Then today, they announce they have benched Joe Flacco, will start Gabriel, and leave Shedeur as the 3rd stringer. It isn’t unprecedented.  Again, the Cowboys traded for Joe Milton after one season as a late round pick from the previous draft.  Considering the incompatibility of the fit for Shedeur and Cleveland and our, what should now be obvious to any and everyone involved, desperate need to add talent at the QB position…  why not do both sides a solid?
    • Young wasn't drafted by Canales.  Canales shouldn't be held accountable until he can hire his own DC and draft his own QB.  
    • Rams, chiefs, eagles, bengals, falcons and Dolphins all have qbs eating up a huge amount of the cap. The saints cap situation shouldn’t be compared to anything and requires like differential equations to figure out.  it’s dishonest at best to compare them head to head. The panthers currently have what is supposed to be the best advantage in the NFL: a high first round qb on their rookie contract. The panthers have thrown huge money at two guards, reupped moton, have (somehow) spent real actual money on the center position, and were even gonna pay Thielen before his wife put her foot down.  To put this another way, what is the defensive equivalent of signing hunt and Lewis? What is the offensive equivalent to letting Shaq, Jackson, Chinn, Luvu walk?
